Cummins M11 temperature sensor coverage
The electronic control module (ECM) feeds each temperature sensor in the sensor harness with +5 VDC. If that supply line is damaged, the affected sensor cannot report correctly, and low voltage on the signal line is caused by an open circuit in the +5 VDC supply. The document identifies the three sensors served by this circuit — the intake manifold temperature sensor, the coolant temperature sensor, and the oil temperature sensor — and points the technician toward the common supply line rather than the individual sensors when codes 145, 154, and 213 appear together.
Applicable truck models
This sheet applies to the Cummins M11 CELECT Plus (1995-98) engine platform and its shared sensor harness. Confirm calibration and harness details against the official Cummins website before repair.
Who needs this M11 temperature sensor manual
Diesel technicians and workshop owners diagnosing several simultaneous temperature-sensor codes on M11 CELECT Plus trucks use this to isolate the shared supply fault quickly instead of replacing good sensors.
